The Art of Living

Vipassana Meditation as Taught by S. N. Goenka

By: William Hart

Narrated by: William Hart

A full-length study of the teaching of S. N. Goenka, prepared under his guidance and with his approval. Useful for meditators and non-meditators alike. This was the first book to appear in English that accurately describes the practice of Vipassana at length for the general listener. It includes stories by Goenkaji, as well as answers to students’ questions that convey a vivid sense of his teaching.

Diversity

An educational & enlightening read. I’ve listened to this more than once, & as an audio novel, it’s well read.

Very helpful

This is a gem of insight and guidance. I could read or listen to this again and again. Nicely done!

Great insight into nature of true Vipassana meditation

Great audio quality and narrator. This book has total understanding and depth of Vipassana meditation.

Everything

I loved the discords when he would talk and tell stories. Such an amazing man he was

Not worth the listen

I sincerely believe this book would be a better read than listen. You need time to process the ideas and stories, which the audiobook does not allow for. Also, the recording quality is poor, the reader is uninterested and painfully mono-toned, and the stories can be difficult to understand.
